A few years back, we spent a week at the Hotel Abbatial St. Germain...it is just a short walk from Notre Dame, and a pretty easy walk to most things in the center of Paris. It wasn't huge, but when we crawled out the window onto our tiny balcony, we could see the Eiffel tower, so we were pleased. It was our first trip, so everything was great! Don't know if that helps, but it is my 2 cents worth. I am jealous, have a great trip!
